Many people do not understand that the IRS needs reports filed to explain the numbers involved in estate sales.

One of the most essential requirements in a report is an appraiser-backed opinion of value in a comprehensive explanation as to how the appraiser came to his conclusion. Such a report will certainly demonstrate to the authorities that the numbers used are well-founded and substantiated.

Having a professional appraisal report from Christopher Calzavara gives the executor definite facts and figures to work with in exceeding IRS and TX state agency requirements. It assures peace of mind to everyone concerned because we assure you that we will stand behind the report if it is ever refuted.

An exhaustive report showing the appraiser's opinion of value is important to support the methods the appraiser used to come to his conclusions.
